Frequently asked questions
How does the pad alert the caregiver?
The sensor pad is designed to work with compatible Smart Caregiver monitors. As soon as the patient stands up or shifts their weight off the pad, it sends an immediate signal to the connected monitor, triggering an alert to help prevent potential falls.
Is this pad suitable for standard wheelchairs?
Yes, measuring 10 x 15 inches, the pad features a slim, unobtrusive profile. It is specifically designed to fit neatly between the armrests of standard chairs and wheelchairs while remaining comfortable for the patient.
Does it require a specific connection type?
